No.4) Petrol power from a 1.8TSI engine producing 118kW and 300Nm of torque due in 2011 (Source Petrol power for VW Amarok | VW ute has petrol engine|)

This is in fact a 2.0 TSI and not a 1.8

Guy H and myself looked this up on the online VW parts catalog (new Elsawin) and saw pics/drawings & part #s for this 2.0TSI engine. Its new and does not share main #s with existing TSIs.
